There is controversy in the market on whether or not it is adequate to install a pipe and air cleaner and no fuel adjustments. I have heard it is ok for dbw (drive by wire or throttle by wire) bikes and not for cable operated bikes. I have tested two cable operated bikes both 96A and in the closed loop area 2-20% approximate and out of the closed loop area but high map load 80-100% the fuel levels are more than safe. But from around 30-60% the bike goes lean in excess of 15.5 to one, off the top of my head which is dangerously lean over long periods of time under moderate loads. So I do not recommend a pipe and air cleaner and no fuel adjustment to any of my customers. I put on just slip-ons regularly with no problems in drivability.
In my opinion there is not a good reason to install a high flow air cleaner if you don’t make fuel adj. If you are going for looks and sound then a slip on is for you. If you are going for looks sound, performance and cooling your motor down some, then a slip on or exhaust system, high flow and fuel adjustment is what you’re after.
